I think you have posted this question separately, and got some useful replies. I have never done this particular job. I believe it is straightforward once you appreciate that the auto box works and connects in a different way.
You will need a flywheel, clutch of course, cable or hydraulic clutch connection, manual pedal set, clutch master cylinder if using hydraulic, and possibly other odd bits. You either need to be buying the lot from someone very reliable who you can trust to supply the complete kit, or better and cheaper, buy or have access to a complete donor car. That way you can see how everything goes, work out how it fits as you dismantle it, and go back easily for any missing bits - clips, drive shaft(?), speedo cable (?) etc.
Good luck
